Proposal for Research Into New Teacher Preparedness :
A 14 page paper presenting a proposal for researching the question of whether new teachers
are as prepared for the classroom as were new teachers of 20 years ago. That new teachers
are relatively unprepared for todays classroom is fairly obvious. The question is
why? Is it their grasp of subject matter, ability to effectively manage a classroom,
efficacy regarding the associated but non-teaching duties of the teaching position, or is
it that the old system of teaching children simply is not effective in todays
society? Indications point to the inability of old methods to meet the needs of today.

How They Compare? : A 10 page paper on the evolving organization of schools,which

system. Starting with nineteenth century "common schools" that did not separate

resulted in "ungraded classrooms" for non-achieving students, the writer covers
the twentieth century equivalent of these separate but unequal classes in "special
education" arrangements.for students not matching the lockstep of an age-graded

John S. Mayher's "Uncommon Sense: Theoretical
Practice In Language Education": 5 pages in length. John S. Mayher's Uncommon
Sense: Theoretical Practice In Language Education dares to delve where few other
educational professionals have the courage. Indeed, the author presents an interesting
look at issues which others tend to view quite differently; it is in the first few
chapters that he lays the groundwork for the connection between language and education.
Mayher is of the opinion that there is much for instructors to learn with regard to this
intrinsic relationship, which is why he strives to pass along the lessons he, himself, has
learned after several decades as a language teacher. The writer discusses how the author's
efforts may be deviate from the norm, but they have proven to have considerable merit of
their own. No additional sources used. Uncommon.wps

Motivational Techniques for Elementary School Students
: A 12 page paper discussing theory and technique underlying both students
intrinsic motivation and the extrinsic factors of motivation supplied by the teacher and
peers. Finally, research has shown what seasoned teachers have known for yearsonly
the students remaining active and involved will retain sufficient levels of intrinsic
motivation for enhancing their learning activities. It is essential that teachers maintain
an atmosphere of creative expectancy rather than encouraging only learning by rote in the
elementary years, particularly for the gifted student. While most students interest
in school subjects wanes with age, allowing a gifted student to languish in boredom ahead
of his classmates almost assures losing that student far too early in his age progression.

Whole Language vs Phonics in Learning to Read : A 9
page research paper comparing the advantages and disadvantages of the whole language and
phonics approaches to teaching children how to read. Whole language is the approach

with spelling rules, punctuation rules and spelling lists. It is also the method which
produces the highest levels of achievement. Each method has its proponents, but nearly all

combination approach is that of the Montessori method of early childhood education.

Social Studies Place in Elementary Education :
A 10 page paper discussing the importance of including social studies in elementary
education. One of the goals of social studies education has been to lead students to the
point that they can be both critical and reflective thinkers, but that focus traditionally
has been only marginally at the junior high school level and has been reserved primarily
for high school and college. Studies ranging in age from very new to 30 years old have all
found that this population consistently has been disappointing in the level of critical
thinking that they have been able to achieve when social studies education begins in
earnest in junior high school. One obvious possible solution is to begin social studies in
earnest in elementary school rather than keep it as only a passing subject that is only
briefly addressed. Bibliography lists 7 sources. Socstud.wps

Music Appreciation Through The Ages : 30 pages in
length. One of the reasons that the "average Joe" cares little for classical
music is that he knows nothing of it. We have raised generations in which it is common for
the average person to be unable to distinguish between Vivaldi and Tchaikovsky.
Khatchaturian is an unknown name, and a response of, "Ive heard that
oneits on all the old cartoons" is commonplace. Some observers believe
that classical music is now a special taste, like Greek language or pre-Columbian
archeology. With the proper exposure and the proper method of teachingthat of
anticipated surprise rather than supreme boredom and all-too-common
pretentiousnessthat respect can slip into a love of the music that will be enduring
for a lifetime and so preserve the genius of the ages. Bibliography lists 16 sources. Musicapr.rtf
